New Kia Magentis with projector car headlight bulbs to debut next month
Posted by Susannah Mayers
The new generation Kia Magentis will show off its projector car headlight bulbs when it makes its world premiere next month at the 2010 New York International Auto Show.
It is longer, lower and wider than previous models and boasts a raked roofline, high shoulder line and flared wheel arches.
"For this car, we started with a clean sheet and worked to achieve an exterior design with a European feeling and stance," said Gregory Guillaume, chief designer at Kia Europe.
"Its a global car with individual appeal," he added.
The vehicles exterior was designed by Guillaumes team in Frankfurt, whereas the interior was created by a design team in California.
Kia is to confirm the new saloons name closer to its launch, which will occur in phases around the globe but will hit UK showrooms in 2011.
Back in January, Kia Motors donated the 500,000th car made at its Slovakian plant, a Ceed SW, which has black bezel car lights, to a nearby transplantation centre.
The vehicle will be used to be used to transfer surgery teams and organs for transplant in the city of Martin, Slovakia.
There’s an all-new Kia optima/Magentis which will make a sales debut later this year. Just like previous generation Magentis, the new one will also feature projector car headlight bulbs.
Best,
